• When the bearing cap is removed after being tightened to the
specified torque with main bearings installed, the tip end of the
bearing must protrude. Refer to EM-83, "
Disassembly and Assem-
bly" for the tightening procedure.
• If standard is not met, replace main bearings.
CRUSH HEIGHT OF CONNECTING ROD BEARING
• When connecting rod bearing cap is removed after being tightened to the specified torque with the connecting rod bearings installed,
the tip end of the bearing must protrude. Refer to EM-83, "
Disas-
sembly and Assembly" for tightening procedure.
• If standard is not met, replace connecting rod bearings.
MAIN BEARING CAP BOLT DIAMETER
• Check for bolts (M9 and M12) installed from lower side using the following procedure.
NOTE:
• Side bolt (M10) is outside the target.
• Figure shows M12 bolt.
• Measure bolt diameter ″ d1″ from tip of the bolt to dimension "a".
• Measure bolt diameter ″d2″ from the dimension between tip of the
bolt and dimension ″b ″ as base station to dimension ″c″ .
NOTE:
If a narrower part in the threads is determined by visual check,
measure ″d2″ at that point.
• Calculate the difference between ″d1″ and ″d2″ .

REMOVAL
1. Remove wheel and tire using power tool.
2. Remove engine under cover using power tool.
3. Without disassembling the hydraulic lines, remove caliper torque member bolts using power tool. Then
reposition brake caliper aside with wire. Refer to BR-31, "
Removal and Installation of Brake Caliper and
Rotor" .
NOTE:
Do not press brake pedal while brake caliper is removed.
4. Put alignment mark on disc rotor and wheel hub and bearing assembly, then remove disc rotor.
5. On 4WD model, remove cotter pin, then remove lock nut from drive shaft using power tool. Then remove end of drive shaft from wheel hub and bearing assembly. Refer to FAX-9, "
Removal and Installation" .
6. Remove wheel sensor. Refer to BRC-114, "
Removal and Installation" .
• Inspect the wheel sensor O-ring, replac e the wheel sensor assembly if damaged.
• Clean the wheel sensor hole and mounting surface with a suitable brake cleaner and clean lint-free shop rag. Be careful that dirt and debris do not enter the axle bearing area.
• Apply a coat of suitable grease to the wheel sensor O-ring and mounting hole.
CAUTION:
Do not pull on the wheel sensor harness.
7. Remove wheel hub and bearing assembly bolts using power tool.

Front Suspension PartsINFOID:0000000005148108
Check front suspension parts for excessive play, cracks, wear and
other damage.
• Shake each front wheel to check for excessive play.If looseness is noted, inspect wheel bearing end play, then check
ball joint end play. Refer to FA X - 6 , "
On-Vehicle Inspection and Ser-
vice" and FSU-10, "Inspection".
• Make sure that the cotter pin is inserted (4WD only).
• Retighten all nuts and bolts to the specified torque.
• Check shock absorber for oil leakage and other damage.
• Check suspension ball joint for grease leakage and ball joint dust cover for cracks and other damage.
Front Wheel AlignmentINFOID:0000000005148109
PRELIMINARY INSPECTION
WARNING:
Always adjust the alignment with the vehicle on a flat surface.
NOTE:
If alignment is out of specificat ion, inspect and replace any damaged or worn suspension parts before making
any adjustments.
1. Check and adjust the wheel alignment with the vehicle under unladen conditions. “Unladen conditions”
means that the fuel, coolant, and lubricant are full; and that the spare tire, jack, hand tools and mats are in
their designated positions.
2. Check the tires for incorrect air pressure and excessive wear.
3. Check the wheels for run out and damage. Refer to WT-47, "
Inspection" .
4. Check the wheel bearing axial end play. Refer to FA X - 6 , "
On-Vehicle Inspection and Service" .
5. Check the shock absorbers for leaks or damage.
6. Check each mounting point of the suspension components for any excessive looseness or damage.
7. Check each link, arm, and the rear suspension member for any damage.
8. Check the vehicle height. Refer to FSU-24, "
Wheelarch Height (Unladen*1)" .
• Verify the level using Consult-III memory register 1103 and set to 0 ± 10 mm (0 ± 0.39 in) as necessary.
GENERAL INFORMATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS
1. A Four-Wheel Thrust Alignment should be performed.
• This type of alignment is recommended for any NISSAN vehicle.
• The four-wheel “thrust” process helps ensure that the vehicle is properly aligned and the steering wheel
is centered.
• The alignment machine itself should be ca pable of accepting any NISSAN vehicle.
• The alignment machine should be checked to ensure that it is level. Suspension component

• Check the ball joint for excessive play. Replace the upper or lower link assembly if any of the followingexists:
- Ball joint stud is worn.
- Ball joint is hard to swing.
- Ball joint play in axial directions or end play is excessive.
Swinging Force
NOTE:
Before checking the axial forces and end play, turn the lower ball joint at least 10 revolutions so that the ball
joint is properly broken in.
1. Measure the ball joint swinging force using a suitable tool.
• Measure at the cotter pin hole for upper ball joint as shown.
• Measure at the groove for lower ball joint as shown.
2. Verify the ball joint swinging force is within specification.
Turning Force
Check the turning torque using a suitable tool.
NOTE:
Before checking the axial forces and end play, turn the lower ball
joint at least 10 revolutions so that the ball joint is properly broken in.
Vertical End Play
Check dust cover for damage. Replace it and the cover clamp if necessary.

KNUCKLE
7. Remove pinch bolt from steering knuckle using power tool, thenseparate lower link ball joint from steering knuckle.
8. Remove steering knuckle from vehicle.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL
Check for deformity, cracks and damage on each part, replace if necessary.
• Perform ball joint inspection. Refer to FSU-10, "
Inspection" .
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
• Refer to FSU-13, "
Component" for tightening torques.
CAUTION:
Use a new cotter pin for installation of lock nut.
• When installing disc rotor on wheel hub and bearing assembly, align the marks.
NOTE:
When not using the alignment mark, refer to BR-7, "
DISC ROTOR
: Front Rotor Inspection" .
• When installing wheel and tire, refer to WT-49, "
Rotation" .
